Well I certainly would expect all Jews to support Israel.

And I’m betting most of them do no matter what some thumb-sucking poster asserts as “stereotype”.

Here’s an anecdotal story. Once had a Jewish boss. Was arguing politics of some sort....forget which race but I offered as an argument that a particular candidate (NOT Obama, this was years ago)was against ISrael. All of a sudden I got real self-conscious, thinking perhaps I shouldn’t have AssUMed all Jews favor Israel. I even apologized for making what was perhaps a stereotypical assumption.

“All Jews support Israel,” my boss told me. “And I didn’t know this about.....(I think it was Pat Buchanan but again, memory clogs)”.

I think to accuse one of stereotyping based on an assumption that most, if not all, Jews favor and support Israel, is to be without much of a life, a naval gazer and anal beyond all comprehension.

George Soros...he prolly don’t like Israel.

Well this is one thumb sucker who can see you don’t know what the hell your talking about. The stereotype is not that most Jews support Israel. The issue is why they should support Israel as THE priority in their political beliefs and secondly, why the Jewish vote is taken as an amorphous whole when it is not. You don’t like the percentages, fine. But to stereotype because you don’t see 100% voting block for the Republican side is idiotic.
